Elitefts™ Sponsored Pro Bodybuilder Shelby Starnes demonstrates how to perform banded hyper-extensions.
Keys to Success:
- Relax your glutes and hamstrings so that the movement is targeting your lower spinal erectors.
- Lower your body with control.
- Raise up by only using your lower spinal erectors.
- Squeeze the contraction for 1 second.
